We have made such arrangements
with the Northwestern Farmer and
Breeder, OF Fargo, Dakota, as to enable
us to make the following liberal offer.
Every one who will pay one years
to the Herald in advance,
having all arrearages, if any, paid up,
will be presented with one years sub
scription to this splendidly conducted
agricultural and stock journal which
is acknowledged to be one of the most
practical papers of the kind published
in the Northwest.
We should like to see the Herald
and The Farmer in every household in
Jerauld County. The Farmer is twen-

illustrated, and neatly bound. 1t con-
tains the views, experiences and SEN
timents OF Northwestern farmers, and
is therefore more suitable for Dakota
readers than Eastern farm journals.
